Fall in a second

Hearing this result, both Wang Meilan and Li Guifang could no longer hold their breath, and said in a sour tone with a hint of anger: "Mrs. Zhang, since this is the case, it must be nothing to do with us. I have to rush to another house for an interview. I'll go first."

"Yes, Mrs. Zhang, your daughter-in-law has really good eyesight."

After the two of them finished speaking, they strode away proudly. Their faces were completely different from the kindness and harmony they had when they first arrived. Meng Xiaofei was shocked, and he was glad that they were not chosen. Riding on her head was presumptuous.

For a while, Zhang Lan felt a little uneasy, and when she looked back, she didn't even have a good attitude towards Meng Xiaofei, as if she was blaming her for causing her such embarrassment.

"Congratulations girl, I'm happy for you." Chen Ju said to Yan Chu.

"Thank you." Yan Chu really thanked the other party from the bottom of his heart. If she hadn't taught her how to use the kitchen utensils, she would have been in a mess because of nervousness.

"I'm leaving too. I wish you success in your future work here." Chen Ju also carried her bag on her back, and left Meng Xiaofei's house with a wave.

Yan Chu stood in the living room, watching Aunt Chen Ju leave. When she turned her head, there were only three people left, one was the employer's wife, who seemed not very good at negotiating, and the other was a more amiable young aunt, Yan Chu Standing there not knowing what to do next, I was a little embarrassed.

Zhang Lan sat there with her legs crossed, with a calm face and said nothing, and Meng Xiaofei sat on the other side and did not speak. It was obvious that the current atmosphere in the house was a bit strange.

Yan Chu stood there for a long time, with his hands folded together, not daring to move. Are they dissatisfied with themselves, or...

Finally, Zhang Lan spoke first, to Meng Xiaofei: "Xiaofei, have you really decided to let this country girl take care of your daily life?"

"I think she's pretty good. Mom, do you have any comments?" Meng Xiaofei asked with a smile.

"Me?" Zhang Lan smiled, with a strange tone, "I don't dare to have any opinions, this is hand-picked by you, and I still have to obey your preferences."

Tasting, savoring carefully, the tone implied that he had already put himself aside, and instead Meng Xiaofei became a sinner, a sinner who disobeyed her mother-in-law.

At this moment, Zhang Lan stood up, walked a few steps towards Yan Chu, looked at her with unfriendly eyes, and then said: "Since my daughter-in-law has already made up her mind, I have something to say. We must also make it clear in advance. First of all, our family does not raise idlers. If I find you lazy, do not do things, or have bad intentions, I will fire you immediately. Second, the work rules I explained earlier must be completed, and there is one thing that cannot be done. , very good, you can pack up and leave. Third, I will come over and check you at any time, don't let me grab your pigtails!"

Zhang Lan gave Yan Chu a badass. In fact, this old lady is really scary, but for such a high-paying job, Yan Chu endured it one by one, and she really needs money urgently.

"Don't worry, I will definitely do a good job." Yan Chu said.

Zhang Lan didn't wait for her to finish, she turned around and left her a back view. Zhang Lan looked at Meng Xiaofei and said, "I don't have anything to do here, so I'll go back first."

"Mom, don't you want to stay for lunch before leaving?" Meng Xiaofei asked, but it was just to be polite, she didn't really want to keep her here for dinner.

"I can't." Zhang Lan answered very simply, she took her bag and prepared to leave, before she added: "I don't like the dishes she cooks, and I'm not used to them." go outside.

Meng Xiaofei also hurriedly chased after him: "Mom, go slowly."

Zhang Lan came to the yard, raised her hand and waved: "Okay, don't send it off, go in, don't move the tire."

Meng Xiaofei also stopped, and stood at the door to watch the other party leave. Zhang Lan came to the gate and got into the black car, but the car did not leave for a long time, so Meng Xiaofei had no choice but to turn around, close the door and go back to the house.

Zhang Lan, who got in the car and closed the door, was sitting in the back seat. The driver in front was her son's hired driver. She asked if she was leaving now. Zhang Lan said wait, she wanted to call her son.

"Hey, Mom, I heard that you found some nannies for Xiaofei today."

"Your daughter-in-law is really kind, she always fights against me, she refuses an experienced and qualified nanny, and insists on hiring a good country girl." Zhang Lan complained and complained, "She can't understand my good intentions at all. , and always feel that I am hurting her."

"It's okay, it's a big deal, as long as she is happy, don't get mad at this little thing."

"I did all this for my grandson."

"Yes yes yes." Zeng Yuming echoed his own mother on the other end of the phone.

"Son, you still have to come back often to take a look. No matter what, she is also the mother of your own son. Don't let her feel unstable during pregnancy, you know?"

"I will, Mom, I will go back to see her in two days." Zeng Yuming promised.

"Well, okay, let's do this first, you are busy, I'm going back." Zhang Lan hung up the phone after speaking, and then gave instructions to the driver to leave.

Meng Xiaofei came back from the outside and closed the door after entering the house, and found that Yan Chu was still standing there motionless, she immediately smiled: "Okay, don't be so serious, my mother-in-law has already left."

Yan Chu breathed a sigh of relief, but still didn't move, Meng Xiaofei looked at her and asked doubtfully, "What's wrong?"

"I, my suitcase is still outside." Yan Chu pointed.

It was only then that Meng Xiaofei came to his senses, and hurriedly said, "It's okay, you can go and bring it in."

Yan Chu nodded, and ran out in small steps. This young aunt doesn't look as fierce as that old lady, so she should be able to get along with her, she hoped.

Bringing a suitcase in, Meng Xiaofei looked at her. The suitcase was undeniably a bit old, the fabric was a little faded, and the style looked like something from more than ten years ago. She won't come to be a nanny at such a young age. Meng Xiaofei's thinking like this does not mean she looks down on the job of nanny. She just thinks this job is very hard, and if it is not done well, it will be angry with the employer. Generally, it is not something ordinary people can bear of.

Dazed for a moment, Meng Xiaofei clapped his hands and said, "Well, let me show you your room first."

Yan Chu was surprised, and whispered: "My room?"

"Yes." Meng Xiaofei laughed naturally, "Of course I will prepare a room for you when you come to my house. Is it possible that you still want to live outside like Xiao Hei?"

"Who is Xiao Hei?" Yan Chu asked curiously.

"That big dog outside is it." Meng Xiaofei explained in an easy-to-understand manner.

Yan Chu understood in an instant, and couldn't help laughing, this aunt was quite amiable and easy to get along with.

"Then do I still need to take care of Xiao Hei?" Yan Chu asked a little guilty, the dog outside looked quite big and fierce.

"It's easy to say, basically I'm taking care of it. Of course, it's best for you to take care of me when I can't take care of it." After Meng Xiaofei finished speaking, he didn't forget to add: "Actually, Xiao Hei is not fierce at all, he just grows up. There’s no way to do that.”

Yan Chu nodded. When she was a child, she was chased by dogs in the village, and she was still somewhat shadowed.

If she was asked to take care of the dogs, would she be able to do well.

Meng Xiaofei walked ahead, stopped at the door of a room at the end of the corridor, reached out and twisted the doorknob, turned to Yan Chu and said, "This is your room."

her room?Yan Chu was a little surprised and curious.

Meng Xiaofei walked in, helped to open the window for ventilation, Yan Chu dragged his suitcase and followed inside, this is a small room, just like the whole house, well decorated, at least better than Yan Chu's own home The house in her hometown is a hundred times better. It is no exaggeration to say that the wall at the head of the bed has peeled off, and there are often mice in the room. It is dark and damp. It's so beautiful, with a sunny window, a brand new bed, wardrobe, bedside table, and a set of desks and chairs.

Seeing that she was looking at the house, Meng Xiaofei said again: "The bathroom is outside, you can see it after walking a few steps."

Yan Chu nodded as if understanding.

"Then, you can pack your things first, and call me if you don't understand anything." Meng Xiaofei walked out after finishing speaking.

Yan Chu realized it later and quickly responded.

Looking at this room, Yan Chu really couldn't believe that she would live here in the future, this is too good, she was a little nervous and excited, she went forward and reached out to touch the soft bed, wanting to sit but was afraid Dirty it, let's take a shower at night and then go up to experience it. She raised her hand and gently smoothed the crumpled sheets, then squatted down, opened her suitcase, and took out her daily necessities first. Then close the trunk and stow it away in the corner.

Not daring to delay for too long, Yan Chu tidied up and came out quickly. At this moment, Meng Xiaofei was waiting for her in the living room. Seeing her come out, he asked, "Is everything tidied up?"

Yan Chu nodded, but still didn't dare to speak much.

Meng Xiaofei smiled hurriedly and said: "You don't have to be restrained here, I am a very easy-going person, as long as you don't touch my thunder point, we can still get along well."

"I want to ask, what should I call you?" Yan Chu asked tentatively.

Meng Xiaofei thought about it carefully. She couldn't just call her employer or boss. She remembered the soap operas she had seen. Generally, the maids and nanny at home call the hostess Mrs. So-and-so. She also wanted to experience that kind of Feel.

"Well, my husband's surname is Zeng, you can call me Mrs. Zeng, and my husband, you can call me Mr. Zeng."

"Okay." Yan Chu nodded.

"Then I'll take you around the house first to get familiar with the environment?" Meng Xiaofei asked.

"Ok."

"You should already know where the kitchen is. Let me introduce you how to use some electrical appliances." Meng Xiaofei took her to the kitchen first, and introduced the steam oven, dishwasher, disinfection cabinet, etc. in turn.

Yan Chu was a little dazzled, the life of the people in the city is so rich. In her hometown in the village, the kitchen only has a simple earthen stove, and she needs to chop firewood in her daily life. Life in the city is so convenient. She finally understands why the village is so poor. Many young people would rather live a hard life outside than go home.

"The refrigerator is here, and it has double doors." Meng Xiaofei opened it for her to see, "The left side is the freezer area, and the right side is the cold storage area. Usually, all kinds of vegetables and meat should be opened separately. With such a fresh-keeping box, otherwise it will be easy to smell. .”

"Okay, I will remember." Yan Chu nodded.

"The washing machine is here." Meng Xiaofei demonstrated to her how to use it. "This is a dryer, but I don't use it often. I prefer to dry it naturally, so that the clothes will have the smell of sunshine. It is near the sea. Usually When the weather is good, there will be a sea breeze, and clothes can be dried on the second-floor terrace, but when the weather is bad and rainy, use the dryer, and its role will be reflected at this time.”

Yan Chu nodded and wrote down one by one.

After the introduction on the first floor, Meng Xiaofei took her to the second floor for a walk. The study is on the second floor, and there is also a movie room, which is usually used for watching movies. The terrace is very large, and you can really see the distance from it. the sea.

This was Yan Chu's first time seeing the sea, and he couldn't help but stay for a while, his feet seemed to be frozen in place.

Meng Xiaofei originally wanted to introduce her and then leave, but accidentally found her immersed in it and asked, "Are you looking at the sea?"

"En!" Yan Chu nodded, "It's the first time I've seen what the sea looks like when I grow up."

"Do you like the sea?" Meng Xiaofei asked again.

"like."

"Then you are lucky. You can see the sea anytime and anywhere here. When I have time, I will take you to the seaside. If you remember the road, you can go there by yourself when you have time."

"Yeah!" Yan Chuxi smiled brightly, Meng Xiaofei thought to herself, she is really a child, so easy to be happy, so easy to be satisfied, she was suddenly curious, did Lao Ji feel like this when getting along with her girls?

After walking around and familiarizing himself with the surroundings, he went back downstairs. Yan Chu glanced at the time in the living room. It was almost twelve o'clock. He quickly proposed to make lunch, but Meng Xiaofei didn't stop him. He patted his stomach and said with a smile : "I'm just a little hungry. It's a good thing to have someone cook for me now. Go ahead. You don't need too much. Three dishes are almost enough."

Yan Chu nodded and turned to go to the kitchen. Meng Xiaofei sat on the sofa and looked at his phone, only to find that Ji Youqing just replied to her message.

Ji Yuqing: Can you say this is the trouble of happiness?

Meng Xiaofei replied: Now it's a good decision. Someone will cook for me, and I don't have to rack my brains about what to cook every meal, and the cooking is not very delicious.

Putting down the phone, Meng Xiaofei gently touched his belly and said, "Baby, this sister will cook for us from now on, do you like it?"

Although the baby in her belly is still small, Meng Xiaofei put her hands on her belly, as if she could have a telepathy, and couldn't help laughing: "I knew you would like it, snack."

Yan Chu made this lunch with great care. After all, it was her first meal at work, and she almost used up all her sincerity, all her seriousness and concentration. The result was good, and the evaluation received Also very good.

Meng Xiaofei ate with a bowl, and praised while eating: "It's really well done, I like the taste of this kind of home-cooked food. In fact, you can add a little bit of spicy, it's okay."

Yan Chu was stunned for a moment, and just wanted to ask you, didn’t you say not to put spicy food before, but Meng Xiaofei smiled and explained before he could express his doubts: “It was because my mother-in-law was present in the morning, and she is a person who can’t touch spicy food at all. , if you put chili, she will definitely let you out first without hesitation. In the future, when my mother-in-law is away, you can put a little spicy in your cooking. After all, some dishes without chili really have no soul. If my mother-in-law comes , don’t put spicy food.”

"Well, I remember." Yan Chu nodded, and stood aside respectfully, because in her impression, the nannies and servants on TV honestly stood aside and kept a distance from their masters.

Meng Xiaofei picked up the bowl again, feeling a little strange, and then said to her: "Don't just stand there, bring the bowl and eat together."

"No, no, you are the master, you eat first." Yan Chu waved his hand: "I will eat the rest after you eat."

"Why, it's not a TV series. I'm not the kind of person who has the concept of superiority and inferiority. You can do whatever you want here. When it's just the two of us, let's sit and eat together. It's going to be cold in a while. I can't let you eat cold dishes."

Yan Chu was still a little hesitant, but Meng Xiaofei insisted on asking her to get a bowl and come over to eat together, so Yan Chu had no choice but to obey.

This aunt is really good, Yan Chu is completely relieved now.

While eating, Meng Xiaofei also started to talk to her on his own initiative, without any pretensions of his master.

"How did you come up with the idea of ​​being a nanny? Are you not afraid of hard work?"

Holding the bowl, Yan Chu only dared to eat the dish in front of him. He was polite and restrained: "The family is in the mountains, the conditions are not good, and there is a brother, and the father is not in good health. Most of the time, it is my mother who is farming. It is very hard. I want to come out and earn more money on my own to improve my family’s life.”

"You are a good boy." Meng Xiaofei paused and still couldn't help but feel sorry: "A kid like you should just go to college this year to experience the time in college, and you are already so mature to make money."

Yan Chu pursed her lips and smiled, burying her head in her food. In fact, after so long, she had already accepted the answer in her heart. Everyone has their own destiny. Maybe her life is like this, but it does not mean that she has accepted her fate. Surrendering to fate, she also wants to break out a world in this city.

"It's okay, if I can't go to university, then I will work harder, it's okay if I work harder, there will always be a way out." Yan Chu said.

Meng Xiaofei also smiled and lowered his head to eat. Compared with her, he was actually much luckier. He grew up carefree all the way. He hardly had to worry about money in his well-off family life. He graduated from university and started working smoothly. Later, he married a Not bad husband, also gave her very good material conditions.

"Your name is Yan Chu, right?"

"Uh-huh!"

"Strict Yan? Chu of Chu State?"

"Correct!"

"I don't seem to have told you my name. My surname is Meng, Meng from Mencius, Meng Xiaofei from Fiji."

For the two of them at this moment, no one would have expected that their fate would be entangled in the future.

Yan Chu simply thought that he had found a pretty good job, and Meng Xiaofei simply thought that he had found a pretty good babysitter who would be able to provide help and care during her pregnancy life in the future.

After lunch, Meng Xiaofei stretched his arms while sitting on the stool, then yawned, and muttered: "I feel sleepy at this time every day. I'll go back to my room to sleep for a while. You can also take a rest after packing up." , don’t worry about dinner yet.”

Yan Chu nodded, and watched the other party get up and leave to go back to the room. Because she was a little hungry, she silently added another bowl of rice, and swept away all the food, so that there was no need to waste it. When cleaning up, because she was not so skilled Using the dishwasher and being afraid of wasting electricity, Yan Chu washed it with his hands habitually, and then went back to his small room.

The afternoon sun came in from the window, Yan Chu sat on the chair, the surrounding was quiet, suddenly felt a little overwhelmed when she was free, a feeling that she was not working, this job was not as difficult and difficult as she imagined tired.

Picking up his mobile phone, Yan Chu took a few photos of the room and sent them to his mother and Ah Ming respectively. In the message to his mother, he said that he had arrived at the home where he worked, and that the employer treated her very well. As for Ah Ming, she called directly to announce the good news.

After receiving the call from Ah Chu, Lu Ming's first reaction was that the interview should have a result, so she answered it quickly.

"Ah Chu, is there any news!"

Yan Chu couldn't hold back his excitement, and his voice was full of joy: "Guess."

"Well, I guess you were hired successfully!" Lu Ming said.

"I'm so happy, Ah Ming, I finally got this job, and the other party also said that in the future, it can be raised to [-], [-] a month, my God, our family's annual income! and become rich.”

"Congratulations, Congratulations Ah Chu, it's really great, I'm very happy for you." Lu Ming said.

"Have you seen the photos I sent you? I still have a room. I really didn't expect that there would be my room."

Lu Ming was sincerely happy for her: "Ah Chu, come on, congratulations on finding a job successfully."

"What are you doing, Ming?"

Lu Ming squatted on the ground, holding her mobile phone and casually said, "I'm packing my luggage."

"Pack your luggage?" Yan Chu was puzzled, "Where are you going? Are you going home during the National Day holiday?"

"No..." After thinking about it, Lu Ming decided to tell her the truth. After all, she is her best friend and there is no need to hide it. "I want to travel with Aunt Ji and Aunt Ji's sister."

"Wow, are you traveling? That's great. Where are you going?"

"Thailand." Lu Ming replied nunuzui.

"Wow, it's going abroad. It's great. I'm so envious of you, Ming." Yan Chu said.

"You work hard, and I study hard. We will have the opportunity to go abroad together in the future." Lu Ming said.

"Well, definitely will!"

"Lu Ming?" A voice suddenly came from outside the door.

Lu Ming hurriedly said to Yan Chu on the phone: "Ah Chu, Aunt Ji is calling me, I won't talk to you for now, I will contact you later, bye."
